Papa, who's to blameWhy you never had your fortune and famePapa what did you gainTo leave the love you had for a two-bit damePapa why did you turn your backWhy didn't you stay on trackWhy did you leave and make her cryPapa you meant to the world to meWhy did you abandon meNow it's a long and sad goodbye

Papa what is this gameWith all that cheating you did you're going to go insanePapa I am in painCause on the day you left you said I'd do the samePapa, why did you turn your backWhy didn't you stay on trackWhy did you leave and make her cryPapa you meant that world to meWhy did you abandon meNow it's a long and sad goodbye

PapaNoOh papaPapaOh papaNoOh papa

Why did you turn your backWhy didn't you stay on trackWhy did you leave and make her cryPapa you meant the world to meWhy did you abandon meNow it's a long and sad goodbye
